PICTURES USA SCIENCE - ROULEAU & CIOFFI Mr. Rouleau purchased a half dozen pig hearts from Bob’s Meat Market to serve as a foundation for a lesson in human anatomy and physiology. Pig hearts are remarkably similar to human hearts in size and function. While many of the students were repelled by hearts that Mr. Rouleau had cut in half, they were also fascinated by the different chambers and valves in the hearts. Using the physical hearts, and several illustrated diagraphs, they were able to learn how human and pig hearts circulates the blood throughout the body. Students had to show they understood the location and function of the heart chambers, valves and vessels. OPEN DOORS - COMMUNITY SERVICE GROUP - TAYLOR On Tuesday, December 6th, we made decorations for a new local business right here in Saint Albans. Ashley is the owner of Routine Nutrition and over the weekend we talked and she asked if the kids could make some decorations for the holiday for her business. So we did! In return each child will get a certificate for a free shake or BoBo Tea. We had so much fun and the kids filled the tree! Mission accomplished! Link to 11 Pictures. RAFFLE WINNERS FROM WALKING WEDNESDAY 12-7-2022 Each Walking Wednesday, all the students who walked and biked and who signed in at the front of the school are entered into a raffle.
